Water Baptism

Go public with your faith.

Water baptism is a public declaration that you have decided to follow Jesus. It is not about having a perfect life; it is about identifying with the new life Jesus has given you.

Ready to get baptized?

We would love to celebrate this step with you and help you prepare for an upcoming baptism opportunity.

  • Baptisms happen throughout the year at Wave Church campuses.
  • Our team will explain what to bring and what to expect.
  • Family and friends are welcome to come celebrate with you.

What baptism means

Baptism points to the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus. Going under the water represents leaving the old life behind, and coming up represents new life in Christ.

  • It is a response to salvation, not a way to earn it.
  • It is a public moment of faith and obedience.
  • It is something the church celebrates together.

How to prepare

Our team will help you know where to go, what to wear, and how the baptism moment will work.

  • Bring a change of clothes and anything else your campus team recommends.
  • Invite family, friends, and people who have been part of your faith journey.
  • Let us know if you have questions or need pastoral conversation first.

Questions are welcome
